Off-Road Skirmish Ready - Tamiya 56026 - 1/16 RC German Panzer IV Ausf.J Tank Kit  [56026]

Scale Armour With Real Weight and Detail

The Tamiya 56026 - 1/16 RC German Panzer IV Ausf.J presents the Panzerkampfwagen IV as a full-featured radio control kit for hobbyists. The model faithfully shows the tank's stepped hull and the 7.5cm KwK 40 L48 main gun so you get an accurate silhouette and working parts.

Robust Frame and Control Precision

This Ausf.J model uses a heavy metal chassis to give realistic mass and resilience. The metal underskin reproduces the original construction approach. The DMD control unit delivers responsive control over movement and the turret, while authentic Maybach V12 sounds boost realism during runs.

Gun Effects and Optional Battle Gear

The main armament includes an LED muzzle flash and a recoil mechanism that cycles the barrel for lifelike firing action, supported by matching sound cues. The front machine gun also produces coordinated light and sound. Fit ITEM 53447 to enable hit detection and organised 1v1 or team battles.

Why the Ausf.J Was Deployed

Introduced in 1944, the Ausf.J combined simplified production with improved defensive features to remain effective in late-war conditions. Its reputation for toughness kept it in frontline use along with heavier designs like the Panther and King Tiger.

Tamiya 56026 Panzer IV Ausf.J is a strong pick for builders who want an operational, museum-quality scale tank that can be set up for display or battle with the extra electronics.
